Frequently Asked Questions

Yes. SLB is an equal employment opportunity employer. Qualified applicants are considered without regard to race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, national origin, age, disability, status as a protected veteran or other characteristics protected by law. One of our greatest strengths is the diversity of our workforce, with people from 170+ nationalities and diverse backgrounds working together and sharing common objectives.

People, Technology and Performance are the three core values that guide our actions.

• We value People, because our exceptional and diverse people are the pulse and spirit of who we are.

• We value Technology, because our passion for exploring enables us to solve the world's energy challenges.

• We value Performance, because together we deliver outstanding, sustainable results for our customers and other stakeholders.

We believe that a culture of diversity and inclusion is not just the right thing to do – it is a business imperative. Driven by a set of collective behaviors defined within our culture, employees are expected to treat one another professionally, with mutual respect, trust, and dignity. They must also display respect when interacting with customers, contractors, and others involved in our operations, including members of local communities. SLB does not tolerate any discrimination based on race, color, gender, age, sexual orientation, gender identity, ethnicity, disability, religion, marital status, or union membership. Our people are expected to understand these standards and always act with Integrity as per our Code of Conduct.

Yes, our Employee Resource Groups (ERGs) are an important part of our culture and life at SLB. Our ERGs help foster a diverse and inclusive environment. They provide spaces for employee-led conversations, further support a sense of belonging, and help improve representation for underrepresented groups. They are focused on strengthening connections, respecting differences and elevating the shared values that bring us together to overcome our biases and build stronger bonds.

Our culture empowers employees to create new ERGs. Our current ones include:

• BOLD: Black Organization for Leadership and Diversity
• Connect Women: Empowering women to achieve their full potential, break stereotypes, and promote gender equality
• LGBT+ Allies: Building a culture of respect, inclusion, and authenticity for employees who identify as LGBTQ+ and other gender-diverse identities
• The ThisAbility Network: Empowering people with visible and non-visible disabilities, health conditions, and caregivers

The physical and mental health of our employees is a core priority at SLB. Led by our Live Well Program — a preventive, evidence-based approach to physical and mental health, and global benefits, we provide employees with access to confidential mental health support through our Employee Assistance Program, accredited Mental Health First Aiders on-site, and local medical professionals equipped to address region-specific health needs. This commitment has been externally recognized, including the Duty of Care Award from International SOS.

Sustainability is a core part of how SLB operates, not a side initiative. SLB's sustainability strategy is rooted in three priorities: climate action, people, and nature. 

• Climate Action: reducing operational emissions, decarbonizing customer operations, and advancing technologies and partnerships that enable lower-carbon energy systems.

• People: driving real change by working to respect human rights, championing diversity and inclusion, and fostering STEM innovation. By investing in our team and the communities where we operate, we strengthen our collective future.

• Nature: prioritizing safeguarding natural resources through initiatives in water conservation, circularity, and biodiversity.
